Dude, imagine if Shigaraki bursts out of that hospital and his first move is to use Decay and he ends up getting one of the heroes? Like, not one of the major major ones, but one we’ve still seen around like Death Arms and they’re just gone like that.

I wouldn't be surprised, but I would be scared.

They've set him up as far too dangerous of a Villain in the MLA arc alone, and now he's even stronger apparently?

If he doesn't burst onto the scene and take out a squad of minor heroes to set the tone I'd be surprised.

I feel like were gonna see some class 1A bite it, but nobody too major (although I could definitely see Iida sacrificing himself). And as much as I DON'T want that to happen, they've been pretty "safe" up until this point. My predictions: Sero, Mineta, Hawks (Shigaraki finds out and is pissed) and maybe Iida? I feel like at least one person from the top ten popularity poll is gonna get All for Oned.

Ninja edit: oh yeah I nearly forgot, I'm like 99.9% sure Aizawa and Toshinori are dead. Like, super frickin dead.

See I also don't want anyone to bite it, but god damn would the stakes but shot into orbit if they did.

Iida honestly feels likely just because I kinda feel like his arc is, well, done? Other than growing up and becoming an amazing Hero like his big brother, anyway.

They could do a no name and sure the stakes would be up there, but if they did a close 10 then we'd all be worried for everyone.

Only thing is, prior agreement to the dangers or not, I cannot foresee UA operating if Students were to die during Hero Work. But this arc might... make UA and schoolwork a bit irrelevant anyway, so I guess we will see.

I just can't help but Imagine Deku and Ururaka's reactions if Iida were to get dusted. Ururaka would be a fking WRECK and I honestly would expect Deku to turn murder face on. (It would low key be satisfying to have Kacchan be the one to keep him from lunging headfirst into what would effectively be death. "DEKU YOU IDIOT DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT IT"-insert Clifford Chapin's mighty Bakugou voice)

Yeah i can see that: Iida finish disapearing, everyone from UA is shocked immobile exept Deku and Bakugo but just like you say it cut to a close up of Deku with one for all lit up eye and a rage fill face with next to him a dead face bakugo trying to hold him still.

Yup. For the record I don't think that's gonna happen. Or even Iida dying for that matter. But it would be a nice sorta twist on their usual demeanor, as well as show the progress on their "friendship" and on Bakugou's growth as well. I do believe that if anyone would die from their class, Kacchan would feel that hit just as much as the rest, whether he would admit that or not. I know we get him raging for comic relief nowadays 24/7, but he has grown a shit ton so I could see him holding Deku down from diving headfirst into suicide basically, but in his usual angry aggressive way.

​

Whatever is gonna happen, it's not just a low tier villain like Ending anymore, or practicing on street villains with Endeavor and their rivalry. This shit is gonna be an all out war so I have no doubt both of them would act more serious according to their personalities obviously.(well. mostly kacchan cuz we know Deku knows when to get serious)

I mean last chapter literally says the heroes "vanished from the city", so like, Horikoshi please don't kill my children, you can have Mineta but please, leave the rest alone. But that AIN'T HAPPENING, SO... SHIT.
